In 2016, we were a group of experienced quality inspectors at a refinery. Only one of us had a certified Pressure Vessel Inspector designation, but we were all eager to obtain such certification. However, our demanding day-to-day responsibilities at the remote site made it difficult to find time for traditional classroom courses.

We decided to create a systematic learning strategy. We developed a comprehensive study plan that covered all aspects of the API 510 certification exam requirements. We broke the entire course into manageable sections so that we could study at our own pace. To stay motivated, we created a study schedule and held each other accountable. We also formed a study group where we could discuss the material and clarify any questions we had.

We worked hard for months, and our dedication paid off. We passed the API 510 Certification exam! Our success motivated us to pursue API 570 certification. We used the same systematic learning strategy, and we all passed that exam too!

We were passionate about our collaboration and knowledge, so we wanted to share our knowledge with others. We decided to create more flexible and efficient methods for the preparation of such certification. As a result, the "API 510" and “API 570” apps were born. These apps provide interactive learning resources for certifications, and improve the understanding of the inspection requirements. They have been downloaded thousands of times, and they have helped many engineers, inspectors, students, and jobseekers.

We are proud of our accomplishments, and we are excited to continue supporting others in their pursuit of knowledge and growth. We believe that everyone has the potential to succeed, and we are committed to providing the resources they need to reach their goals.
